Australian No. 1 de Minaur and British No. 1 Boulter are set to square off in a United Cup mixed doubles clash on New Year’s Day in Sydney.
Facing her fiancé will be a physical and emotional battle Boulter said.
“I mean, it’s a tough situation,” Boulter said after leading Great Britain to a 2-1 win over Argentina in Group F play staged in Sydney. “It is. It’s a tough one.
“[Alex] was smiling when I came off the court because we kept them in it, so he’s happy. I’m not going to be happy until I win. Yeah, I’m just looking forward to a battle.”
The couple famously partnered at the 2023 Wimbledon mixed doubles.
